Just like Gopher Guts, there are many versions of this song.
Some of the versions we have heard of are:
Alternate Version 1:
Nobody likes me, everybody hates me,
think I’ll go eat worms…
big fat juicy ones, little slimy skinny ones,
hope they don’t have germs!
Alternate Version 2:
Nobody loves me, everybody hates me
Think I’ll go and eat worms
Long ones, short ones, fat ones, thin ones
See how they wriggle and squirm
I bite off the heads, and suck out the juice
And throw the skins away
Nobody knows how fat I grow
On worms three times a day
Ohh…nobody loves me.
Alternate Version 3:
Nobody likes me, everybody hates me,
Think I’ll go eat worms.
Big fat juicy ones, Eensie weensy squeensy ones,
See how they wiggle and squirm.
Chomp off their heads and squeeze out the juice
And throw their tails away
Nobody knows how I survive
On worms three times a day.
Alternate Version 4:
Nobody likes me, everybody hates me
I’m goin’ down the garden to eat worms
Long thin slimy ones, short fat fuzzy ones
Ooey gooey, ooey gooey worms
Long thin slimy ones slip down easily
Short fat fuzzy ones don’t
Short fat fuzzy ones stick to your teeth
And the juice goes slurpin’ (slurping noise) down your throat
and:
nobody likes me

going down the garden chewing worms
long thin slimey ones
short fat furry ones
gooey gooey gooey gooey worms
the long thin slimey ones
slip down easily
short fat furry ones stick
and when the short fat furry ones
stick between your teeth
thats when the jiuce goes

Gee, don’t ya know that I survive on worms three meals a day!
Wow…. My dad use to sing it to me when I was a kid.. Besides that I thought he had made the song up.. He sang it like this:
Nobody loves me, everybody hates me.. I’m gonna eat a worm.
The first one is easy, the second one is greasy, and the third one won’t go down! Yuck!!

“Thats the REAL version…and thats final.”
Okay, I learned a different version from my Mom years ago (her childhood was 1930-40):
Nobody loves me, everybody hates me
Think I’ll eat earthworms
Big fat juicy worms,
Itsy bitsy witsy worms
My how they do squirm!
Up on the rooftop
Down by the chimney-pots
Think I’ll eat some worms,
Big fat juicy worms
Little teeny crunchy worms
My how they do squirm!
In my version I only remember one verse;
Nobody loves me, everybody hates me I’m gonna eat some worms and die.
Big fat juicy ones, long skinny wiggly ones, ones with the jelly inside.
It reminds me of the Hearse ‘song’…
Does anyone know of an collection that has these oddities complied?
ha ha!
I remember this song when I was little and for some reason I used to sing it like this:
Nobody loves me, everybody hates me
I’m an ugly worm
I have no clue why I remembered it that way, maybe from the movie where people turned into worms.
Thanks for the memories!
nobody likes me, everybody hates me
ill go eat some worms
big fat juicy ones, little squirmy wormy ones
ill just eat some worms
Nobody likes me, everybody hates me, guess Ill go fuck some worms.
Nobody likes me, everybody hates me,
I’m gonna eats some woooormmmms,
Short fat juicy ones,
Loooooooong thin slimy ones,
Itsy bitsy, fuzzy wuzzy wooooooormmms
My mom used to sing it to me and add
Im a lonely little petunia in an onion patch
an onion patch, an onion patch, Im a lonely little petunia in an onion patch..and all I do is cry all day
boo hoo
boo hoo
all i do is cry all day
I thought they went together..part of the same
Nobody likes me, everybody hates me,
I’m gonna go eat worms,
Long, thin, slimy ones; Short, fat, juicy ones,
Itsy, bitsy, fuzzy wuzzy worms.
First you bite the heads off,
then you suck their guts out,
then you throw the skin away,
Long, thin, slimy ones; Short, fat, juicy ones,
Itsy, bitsy, fuzzy wuzzy worms.
Chop up their heads and
Squeeze out all the juice,
And then throw their tails away.
Long, thin, slimy ones; Short, fat, juicy ones,
Itsy, bitsy, fuzzy wuzzy worms.
Long thin slimy ones slip down easily
Fuzzy ones stick to your teeth
If you bite the juicy ones,
the big fat juicy ones,
the juice goes sliding down your throat. (slirping noise)
Down goes the first one,
down goes the second one,
Oh how they wiggle and squirm.
Up comes the first one,
up comes the second one,
Itsy, bitsy, fuzzy wuzzy worms.
Everybody likes me,
Nobody hates me!
Why did I eat those worms?
Long, thin, slimy ones; Short, fat, juicy ones,
Itsy, bitsy, fuzzy wuzzy worms.
Lol…Too Funny! We’re having a discussion on these lyrics at work. Here’s how I remember it:
Nobody loves me, everybody hates me, think I’m gonna eat some worms…
Big ones, Tall ones, Fat ones and Small ones, think I’m gonna eat some worms…
Gonna bite their heads off, suck their guts out, think I’m gonna eat some worms…
Gonna bite their heads off, suck their guts out, think I’m gonna eat some worms…
Nobody likes me, everybody hates me,
I’m gonna go eat worms,
Long, thin, slimy ones; Short, fat, juicy ones,
Itsy, bitsy, fuzzy wuzzy worms.
First you bite the heads off,
then you suck their guts out,
then you throw the skin away,
Long, thin, slimy ones; Short, fat, juicy ones,
Itsy, bitsy, fuzzy wuzzy worms.
We used to sing the first two lines like this-
Nobody likes me , everybody hates me
I think I’ll go out and eat some worms
My childhood version….
Nobody Likes Me
Everybody Hates Me
I’m gonna run away-a-a
I”m gonna eat worms
big fat juicy worms
eating worms all day-a-a
First you bite the heads off
then you suck the guts out
Then you throw the skins away-a-a
There is one more verse…that I’m having a problem remembering –
but THIS is the REAL version… lol
NO body likes me, everybody hates me, guess I’ll go eat worms. Along came a skinny one, short fat juciy one, ittzy bitzy, fuzzy wuzzy worm.
Down goes the first one, down goes the 2nd one, oh, how they wiggle and squirm
The version we use to sing was:
Nobody likes me, everybody hates me
So I’m gonne eat a worm
fat ones skinny ones ,squishy, squishy squirmy ones
I’m gonne eat a worm
Bite their heads off suck their guts, throw their skins away
No one know how I eat worms 3 square meals a day….An in between
Nobody likes me, everybody hates me

Long thin slimy ones slip down easily

—- my memory is a little foggy about the middle part I’m sure it should rhyme better, but we definitely ended with the barfing noise
Nobody likes me everybody hates me I guess I’ll go eat worms,
Short ones, fat one, skinny ones, long ones,
Down goes the first one, Down goes the second one

Big fat juicy ones

Little pretty angel worms
From Missouri:
Nobody likes me, everybody hates me
Guess I’ll eat some worms
Fat ones, skinny ones
long ones, short ones
Guess I’ll eat some worms
Eatin’ worms
Eatin’ worms
Down in the garden eatin’ worms
Slice ’em down the middle
and suck out the guts
Throw the fuzzy wuzzy parts away
No body loves me, everybody hates me, I guess I’ll just go eat a worm. I’ll chop off its head and suck out its insides. SLURPPP. What a good worm.
My sister and I were just singing this song and thinking back about childhood memories. We remember it like this:
Nobody loves me,
Everybody hates me,
Going to the garden to eat worms.
Fat ones,
Skinny ones,
Stick between your teeth ones,
Ones that wriggle and squirm.
Wrip there heads off,
Suck there guts out,
Throw their skins away.
No one cares that I survive
On only three worms a day.
Back in the 60’s we used to sung it like this.
Nobody likes me, everybody hates meI’m gonna go each some worms.Fat ones, skinny ones, itsy bitsy chewy onesI’m gonna go eat some wormsFirst ones greasy goes down easy, second one sticks to my tongue.Third ones rusted, fourth ones busted, fifth one tries to get away.Hey Come Back Here! Cut off his head, suck out the juice, throw the skins away.I don’t see why people don’t eat worm three times a day.
Darn it… it was typed out right with spacing
Nobody likes me, everybody hates me
I’m gonna go eat some worms.
First ones greasy goes down easy,
second one sticks to my tongue.
Third ones rusted, fourth ones busted
fifth one tries to get away.
Hey Come Back Here!
Cut off his head, suck out the juice
throw the skins away
I don’t see why people don’t worms
three times a day.
Yes! Lol
No body likes me
Every body hates me
Guess I’ll eat some worms
Fat ones skinny ones
Even little greasy ones
Ones that look like germs
First one’s greasy
Went down easy
Second one stuck to my tongue
Third one busted
Fourth one rusted
Fifth one tried to get away
So I chopped off the head
And sucked out the juice
And threw the skins away
And everybody wants to
know why us kids eat
greasy greasy worms every day!
nobody loves me, everybody hates me, I’m going out to eat some worms, long slim slimy ones, short fat gooey ones, watch how they wiggle and squirm……………(? not sure on the rest of it)
Nobody likes me..
Everybody hates me..
Im going to the garden to eat worms..
Long thin slimy ones.. Big fat furry ones..
Goey goey goey goey worms..
Long thin slimy ones ..slip down easily..
Big fat furry ones stick..
Stick in your teeth and they wriggle about and the juice goes slurp slurp slurp..
Bite off the heads ..
and suck all the juice ..
and throw all the skins away..
Nobody knows how I survive on a thousand worms a day
Why is this wretched little tune stuck in my head today? Looking it up, I don’t see the version we sang in the 1950s in GA: ” Nobody likes me/Everybody hates me/Guess I’ll go eat worms./Big fat juicy ones/Long thin crunchy ones/Bite they heads off/Suck they brains out/Throw they skins away.” Always ‘they,’ not ‘their.’
MY VERSION
no body likes i guess i will eat some worms big fat juicy ones long slim slimy ones
first u bite theads off then suck the guts out ohhh how they wiggle and squirm
I’m so lonely, nobody loves me, I wanna eat some worms.
Big worms, small worms, squishy, wishy wishy worms, worms that squirms and squirms
First one’s easy, take out so easy, Second one stuck to my tongue
Third one rusted, Fourth one busted, Fifth one tried to run
So I cut all the heads and *Sluuuuuurp* all the juices and take all the skin away
And you won’t believe how many many worms I eat three times a day.
I sing it…
“nobody likes me everybody hates me, I’m gonna’ some worms
big fat juicy worms, little skinny scrawny worms, worms that wiggle and squirm.
Bite their heads off, suck their guts out, throw the skins a way….
I wonder why nobody likes me…anyway?”
But… I wanna’ know where this originated from?
the lyrics are actually based on the premise of behavioral psycholgy called Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy by Alfbert Ellis (1913-2007). In most of his books, he often refers back to “nobody likes me, I guess I’ll have to eat worms” or someone thinks of himself as a lowlife slimy worm. He also began ending certain conditions with “itis” such as I-can’t-stand-life-as-it-is-elephant-itis.
Wow, that’s amazing information, thank you
nobody like me
everybody hates me
think I’ll go eat worms
fat ones
juicy ones
little tiny weeny ones
worms that wiggle and squim
cut their heads off
suck their juice out

nobody knows how I can thrive on worms 3 times aday
first ones easy
second ones greasy
third one makes you choke
four ones grimy
fifth ones slimey
sixth one makes you chroke
so go eat worms
I sang this to my kids and now grandkids everytime someone’s having a pity party, lol:
Nobody likes me,
everybody hates me,
I’m gonna eat some worms.
Fat ones,
skinny ones,
Itty bitty squishy ones,
Ones that wriggle and squirm.
Bite their heads off,
Suck their juice out,
Throw their skins away,
Nobody likes me,
everybody hates me:
Gonna eat some worms today!
Everybody hates me, nobody loves me,
I’m going out to eat some worms!
Big fat juicy ones, long green slimy ones,
Itsy-bitsy fuzzy wuzzy worms.
First you bite their heads off, then you suck their gizzards out!
See how they squiggle and squirm.
Everybody hates me, nobody loves me,
I’m going out to eat some worms!
When I was a kid and we’d get pouty my mom would sing this as:
Nobody love me/ everybody hates me/ I’m gonna go eat worms/ Big fat juicy ones/ little slimy stinky ones/ see how they wiggle and squirm!
Nobody likes me
Everybody hates me
I’m going to eat some worms
Big fat juicy ones
Little bitty squishy ones
Worms that wiggle and squirm
Bite their heads off
Suck their guts out
Throw the rest away
Nobody thiinks that I can live on worms three times a day
I was taught it like this by an elderly dinner lady at primary school (early 80’s)
Nobody like me
Everybody hates me
I think I’ll go and eat worms!
Big fat juicy ones
Teeny weeny ??? ones
See how they wriggle and squirm!
The first one was easy,
The second one was greasy,
The third got stuck in my throat,
The fourth one was like a sausage roll
And the fifth one made me choke!
(insert sick noise)
Nobody likes me…. (Etc)
…I know there was more counting after that but don’t recall it enough to write out myself but the bit about “cut off their heads, suck out their juice and throw their sinks away. Nobody knows that I survive on worms 3 times day” was definitely in there somewhere too along with another chorus of “nobody likes me….”
I know its a very old post….but my granddaughter came home saying her teacher told her she sang it wrong…so we went searching for lyrics…didn’t find ours.
We learned worm song as follows:
Nobody likes me everybody hates me I’m gonna go eat worms
First you bite the heads off then you suck the juice out then you chew the rest like gum.. Yum yum
My stomach is in a commotion.. I don’t want to dirty the ocean… Come up come up come up you worms come up
Erp…slop…get the mop
Nobody likes me, everybody hates me
I’m gonna go eat worms
big fat slimy ones, little tiny squirmy ones
oh how the big ones play(?)
first you bite the heads off, then you suck the juice out
then you throw the skins away
i don’t know if I can stand it
two or three times a day
OR, line 4:
“oh how the big ones squirm”
Nobody Likes me,
Everybody hates me,
I’m going out to eat worms.
Big fat juicy ones,
Little tiny sprucy ones,
See how they wiggle and squirm.
Bite their heads off,
Suck their guts out,
Throw the skins away.
Nobody likes me,
Everybody hates me,
I’m going out to eat worms.
Regurgitate! Regurgitate!
Throw up all those worms you ate!
V-O-M-I-T Vomit now!
